  9/5/2023 - Jason Wu Does not like this wine: 85 Points

  Pale ruby with garnet rim.
  Medicinal, crushed strawberries, red cherry. I’d expect more complex aromas developed with bottle ageing. On the palate, the wine is a little disappointing as not much flavour comes through at all but alcohol. Maybe a bad bottle or poorly stored or simply too old? A quite dull bottle to drink alone. Need to get some food to pair to be able to finish the bottle.

  Dark translucent ruby. Nose of typical rose and earth. Lovely fine texture, fresh acidity, good length. Priced at the low end and excellent QPR!

  10/6/2019 - penguinoid Likes this wine:

  Colour: translucent bright cherry red
  Nose: sour cherry, cranberry. Raspberry. Dried rosemary, savoury. Rose petals? Sweet spice, cinnamon, old oak.
  Palate: sour cherry, raspberry? Rose petals. Balsamic vinegar. Sweet spice, old oak. Less savouriness than on the nose. Fresh berry-like acidity; fine grained sandpapery tannins, somewhat drying but less than I’d expect for Nebbiolo. Decent level of complexity, lithe, fresh, lively, vital. Medium bodied, 14% alcohol. Seal: techical cork, perhaps diam.
